THR has the news of theNapoleon Dynamite andNacho Libre director's signing, making this his second collaboration with Wilson after this month's heist comedy, Masterminds. It's been a whopping thirteen years (!!!) since the last movie, Shanghai Knights, which saw Wilson's cowboy teamed up with Chan's kung-fu master in a clashing of genres. These movies were a clear attempt to cash in on Chan's buddy-comedy success following Rush Hour, but the results were that neither 'Shanghai' movie topped $100M. Somehow, someway, some exec saw those numbers and said "God damn let's make another more than a decade later"!

All that said, these movies are pretty harmless and it's likely Shanghai Dawn will be as well.
